Friendly reminder this is an mmd model/pmx model

“The world adores me!”

Asmodeus, avatar of pain and suffering. just kidding >:0. The amount of struggles I went with Asmo??? Way too much. I was gonna release her two days ago, for my birthday lmao, but noooooo I had to add 69 morphs because haha 69. I was also very busy with life and stuff but now I have even less time to work on the next one,,, Basically I lost my mind with Asmo and she might be a bit glitchy. It was my first time actually making coat physics so I hope it’s not too bad (I mean it doesn’t look half bad...). The pass is different this time around and you need to go through ladies night’s tumblr to find Asmo’s cup size. hah. don’t ask. The amount of times I uploaded the file on mediafire because I would always see something that bothered me was so much that I decided to take the time to also make the hands similar to TDA, YYB etc. please send help.

I wish I was a confident queen like Asmo...

I don’t want to write this anymore but I’ll feel bad if I write something bad for Asmo since I love them a lot. Fun Fact: I write these normally when I don’t even have a preview of the model so I just put on a random image that I have saved and sometimes I’ll think that I would accidentally post the post with the wrong image and disown myself.

Asmo best girl

Oi @midnight-moodlet here’s ya girl

Stupid circle eye morph thing is dumb I don't think I'm ever gonna do it again

I DON’T WANT TO POSE HANDS EVER AGAIN

Scarf clips like crazy but when I tried to fix it I accidentally exploded the model so I’ll fix that at a later date. There is also I believe a normal issue with the coat but I’ll also try to fix it at a later date because I don’t want to delay her further...

I’m so dumb cause I closed my tab while writing so it didn’t save so I needed to write everything again, more time lost...

The design belongs to @boxbusiness and there is an ask blog with the name @obeyme-ladiesnight if you're curious

Replaced facial morphs

Added basic facial morphs found in TDA models and YYB

⇒ Morph inspirations did come from TDA models so you can use the model in multiple expressive motions!

Asmo has 69 morphs, lmao I wanted to add enough and do a little gift for you guys with more morphs

Extra facial morphs (like tears, heart eyes, etc.)

Editing is fine

(the model can clip and glitch sometimes so if you can fix it, contact me so I can update the link and I can credit you as well!)

Taking parts is good but ask first

⇒ When taking parts from the other credited, take the original, not my edited version, (I can give guidance though)

⇒ Another exception would be the earrings and scarf that was made by me, so instead ask me first before taking if you want be the earrings and/or scarf (p.s. don't take the earrings they are super heavy whoops, took them from another one of my models yet here I am without decimating)

Betrayal Chapter 9: Who saves us now?

<< 1 -- 2 -- 3 -- 4 -- 5 -- 6 -- 7 -- 8 -- 9: Ao3 || FFN -- 10 >>

Written by: JuliaFC

Beta: Etoile-Lead-Sama and Myimaginationflows

Summary: Chat Noir to the rescue. Well, kinda. (997 words)

Disclaimer: This story is based on characters and situations created and owned by (c) Thomas Astruc, TS1 Bouygues, Disney Channel, Zagtoon, Toei Animation. No money is being made and no copyright or trademark infringement is intended.

Written for the "Snippet July" challenge of the Miraculous Fanworks Discord server @miraculousfanworks AND for LadyNoir July @ladynoirjuly Day 20 — Pride/save me. Let me know what you think!

PS: I forgot to upload this chapter on Tumblr on the 20th! Sorry about that...

oOoOoOoOoOo

It didn't take long before a soft thump echoed from the deck of the diner boat.

Good, Chat Noir is here, thought Marinette.

She looked at Tikki, who nodded and disappeared through the wall to go greet the cat superhero. But straight after that, Marinette could only watch in horror as Jacques, who had been just sitting on a chair next to her reading a book, smirked and dialled a number on his phone.

"Hello, sweetie. The cat is here. Yes. I'll do as planned." He stood up and walked out of the room.

Marinette looked with eyes full of worry at Chat Noir's head popping out from the boat's window. She didn't know what Lila's plan was, but it didn't sound good at all. And what was worse, she had no way to warn Chat Noir that something was wrong. She also knew that the boy always acted on impulse, and may not think twice before jumping in the room if he didn't see anyone there with her. He would fall straight into the trap!

She groaned as loud as she could in hopes of warning Chat Noir, but as she did that, a purple mass appeared in the centre of the room. Right in Chat Noir's full view, and a sentimonster who looked like a buffed up version of Jacques materialised in its place. Marinette and Chat exchanged looks and Chat Noir nodded, his head disappearing from the view. Marinette breathed a sigh of relief.

"Only the bee holder can immobilise a sentimonster," said Tikki.

"How are we going to contact Vesperia? She's only a temporary hero, isn't she? So she doesn't keep her Miraculous, we need to give it to her!"

Tikki looked at Chat Noir sheepishly. "Rena Rouge knows Vesperia's identity, and she knows how to get to the Miracle Box." She sighed at Chat Noir's unbelieving stare and at how his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. Then, she continued, "I know it's hard on you, Chat Noir, but you can't save Marinette alone. You need help. If you cataclysm the sentimonster, it will go mad and we don't know what powers it holds, if any."

Chat Noir swallowed dryly. "It's okay. Marinette is more important than my pride." He sighed and dialled Rena's number on the communicator. There will be time for Marinette to fill him in with all the details she hadn't revealed to him up to now. At the moment, the most important thing was to save her.

However, after having spoken to Alya, explaining to her what they needed, and waiting for a long time that Alya or Vesperia arrived to help; Chat Noir lost his patience. He was nearly going to enter the room and fight the sentimonster himself when his eyes widened in horror: Lila had come back. But the most shocking thing was that it wasn't just Lila. It was Volpina.

Volpina approached Marinette and used her flute to create a cage around her. Then, she came through the cage and took off the tape from Marinette's face with a firm gesture. The girl coughed and spit out the cloth that was filling her mouth. Volpina freed Marinette from the knots and came out of the cage. Marinette took a little time to untie herself completely and get back to a sitting position, trying to gain back the feeling from her hands and legs.

"V-volpina? Wh-what…" was the first thing Marinette was able to say. Volpina sneered.

"It was so easy. I know you're listening, Chat Noir. You may as well want to hand yourself in at this stage. Your pathetic attempt to get the bee holder has failed miserably. The new Bee Miraculous holder was unavailable, so Rena Rouge—or should I say Alya Césaire—had to give the Miraculous to Chloé Bourgeois." Volpina cackled. "How stupid of her. She didn't know that Chloé had teamed up with me! So now…" She fondly grabbed the fox necklace on her neck. "...Now I've got the real one, and nobody will stop me!"

"What have you done to Alya?" screamed Marinette, her hands reaching for the bars of the cage and noticing with surprise that they were more solid than she thought and they didn't disappear when touched.

Volpina laughed. "Chloé used her power to paralyse her so I could get her Miraculous, and she's still unconscious."

"You evil witch!" Chat Noir shouted and jumped out of his hiding place.

Volpina blocked his baton using her flute, but didn't seem to be able to counteract his attacks very effectively. However, before he could knock her off, the sentimonster intervened. It became a fight between Chat Noir and the buffed sentimonster, a fight that Marinette watched with her heart drumming into her throat, jumping at every hit of Chat's baton.

The sentimonster defended himself with his bare hands to start with, then Volpina materialised a pole for him to use as a weapon. Things seemed to get worse for Chat Noir; the boy took many hits and eventually crashed on the ground.

"Chat Noir!" cried Marinette as Volpina used Mirage to create another cage around the black clad superhero.

"Damn witch, you won't trap me like this!" growled Chat Noir, and balled his right hand to a fist, roaring "CATACLYSM!"

His hand came in contact with the bars, and the cage crumbled and turned into ashes. But Volpina didn't even need to snap her fingers; almost immediately, the bars were up again, as solid as before. Chat Noir was left blinking in surprise as Papillon's mask appeared on Volpina's face.

"The plan was perfectly executed, Papillombre. Now we just need to wait." Chat Noir's eyes widened in horror as Volpina's face came closer to the bars of his cage. "Tik-tok, tik-tok, kitty-cat. It will be a pleasure seeing you detransforming and handing your Miraculous to Papillombre."

Marinette's heart sank as Chat Noir growled and shook the bars of the cage with his fists.

They were in DEEP trouble.

-------------------------------------

Author's Note

Whoops. I hope it's clear that Lila is using the Fox Miraculous and the conversation we didn't see before she arrived at the boat had Papillombre offering Volpina "the power to generate solid and unlimited illusions." This story is growing legs, I'm telling you. Why do all my stories end up growing legs?

I hope you liked it and will leave me a comment. You know that comments are my bread and butter!

Until tomorrow, bug out!

the very best of nielciceiregamusic volume one liveblog? for real? yes for real you know it i may have missed the premiere but i can still have a good damn time

-i’ll be damned if theyre not good at sentence mixing this is humorous and coherent in a way that rival’s neil’s own skills. very good & precise song choices

-mold en mono!!!! hell yeah that’s my favorite song from neil’s first 2 albums

-oh yeah say it ain’t star is totally one of this channel’s best & also one of the only ones on this compilation i think ive heard before whoops. well actually if they have ivanushka-tone-telephone i know that one but i’ll admit i havent listened to niel’s whole discography, i’m a new fan & not ashamed to admit it

-ooh ive got some falling to do- and this one song i dont recognize outside of any context but this channel

-ive got some business to do is an amazing title. maybe i should use it to write a crossover between my i earn my life & ive got some falling to do characters

-the pitchbending here is surprisingly good. especially here with the palindromic guitar solo. neil’s such a madlad for creating that in the first place and niel here does a great job with it

-flamingo but fast ooh boy what is this. due to hanging out writing my commentary i cant rewatch the live chat but like. i can come back to this video if i want i’m not missing out on anything permanently

-fl- how is that spelled? ffllaammiinnggoo legs right every letter just appears twice. of course they’d use flamingo legs, i shouldve expected that. what’s owner’s choice supposed to m- oh God that’s a deep neil voice, what is this, you got a toothache?

-like granted the original song is decently high pitched for a neil song, especially considering his young age at the time of making

-why is this such a bop. that chorus is slightly messy, in true SiIvagunner fashion, but like. it’s good. flamingo legs is short though so i’m not sure how they’ll stretch this to fit all of flamingo.

-ahaha. 4/20

-are we going to get a big twist at the very end? in traditional SiIvagunner style? nope just going straight into Aaron?

-no this is called...アーロン ~ How I Beat Shaq & seems to be some touhou??? remix of aaron?

-yeah i may not know much about touhou but there are sound effects & a trumpet it's gotta be touhou which is. interesting to say the least

-like. this is a bop. ive got nothing to complain about but. oh niel you legend this is just amazing & unexpected

-the midi piano is really cool though- oh wait niel just sent out the name of the next track early. it's not lo-fi aliens time yet is it? this still sounds like how i beat shaq

-ive gotta translate that japanese real quick

-wait no. isolated neil vocals. it's definitely lo-fi aliens time but. Oh damn. that's honestly amazing

-i paused (typing) the exact moment the drop went down. are these original niel compositions? if so then major props to niel these are incredible. no wonder this is considered a best of nielciceiregamusic

-ok that japanese from earlier is literally just aaron with a tilda at the end. i'd expect nothing less from you niel

-that's the second time youve sent out the name of the next track early niel is something wrong on my end or yours

-fyi there's a distinct difference between niel & neil

-CHIPTUNE WHO???? oh hell yes that's amazing

-with a title of why i was expecting a version that replaces the who's with why's but no this is a bop

-oh there's the all star. oh ok yeah. still a bop the sheer amount of effort niel puts into these things. they only upload high quality rips

-there's something going on in the background melodies but i can't pace it. wonder what soundfont they used for this?

-MEGALOVANIA‽‽‽‽‽

-the afternoon. or the afterlife.. so lifetime achievment award? no i earn my life. why in god's name does this work out so well niel you genius

-standing on chair because i earn my life. this sounds so seriously good even with the layered vocals

-even the chiptune melody fits oh my god

-god the afternoon already slaps so hard i'm vibing so damn hard to this. also a post-mortem nice in the chat from me

-i can't believe my 'whoops i cant attend the premiere" comment got so many likes. i thought i'd get a notif for each like to start with but i didnt so now i just check out this video and see it's got uh

-twenty likes suddenly and i just think. wow god i wasnt alone in being unable to attend the premiere

-it's not even like tumblr where it condenses loads of notifs into one thing no it just didnt tell me that comment got super popular. like sure i dont need my notifs but wait no this outro trumpets & doots & all is a bop i'm done talking about my comment

-chiptune i earn my life at the end great going niel i love this. completely unironically, neil himself would be proud

-spiral of ants!!! oh baby what is this going to be

-well it's called spiral-charmed ants so i. yep there come the vocals. goodness

-dododo, dodododoo, dododo, dodododoo. never vibed so hard to this song i would say if i hadnt heard neil's piss before & ooc that phrase is terrible but that's just how things are in the land of neil cicierega. and niel ciceirega

-huh those unnoticed grim lyrics in semi-charmed life take on different meanings in this context. good going niel. this is also growing on me slowly. like this. may in fact be a bop

-although it is weird not hearing the messed up lyrics from piss in this. honestly expected "how do i get back to the place where i fell asleep inside your nose" among other things

-not much to say but i have started really truly physically bopping to this so. give this a listen if you please

-can't help but pay special attention to the bass on this song after- hang on the next song's called goddam super bustin what in the hell am i in for

-same intro as normal bustin. everything seems normal. tempo's increasing oh god

-is this going to be like super hey ya? OH

-it's that goddam vinesauce thing goddam it i'm laughing for real right now come on

-what's repulsive number

-i just had to get away from super bustin as soon as possible but the terrible quality of 8th wonder here is repuslive i have to agree

-the- the. bassline's offsync. good god

-thank god niel put the name of the next track in chat this wont last much longer this is hell

-how does such a small offset make this entire song suck so bad goodness

-oh thank god my trains is on. except thomas apparently. dont hear anything weird yet

-i'm gonna have to join class soon i hate to stop listening halfway through- yeah that's about exactly where i expected the drop to be

-and. of course this works out. of course it matches just fine. why would i ever be surprised. niel you madlad

-the "i lie here ever night" bit is so damn funny here. the sync! what in the hell!

-outro seems normal. oh. yeah here's a my trains rip ive heard before. uhh bastille? pompeii? one of those names applies here. thanks niel. thank you so much

-i forgot this was supposed to be the best of nielciceiregamusic for a good few minutes but. thanks niel.

-wait no this is a different rip. viva la trains is different from my thomas i guess. they transitioned into each other very well. maybe niel should rip the view-monster trans tracks if he hasnt already. i mean these two may be train tracks but that's not the same

-that's a double pun hell yeah

-c. CARAMELL DANSEN? WHAT'S THE OTHER PART OF THAT TITLE HOLD ON

-CARAMEL DANSEN MAFIA GOOD LORD

-the fourth place rip. for g o o d r e a s o n s to o

-i hope you guys can hear my soul being sucked out of my body as i type this. i have to go join ela now. jesus christ niel

-(i’m back!)the more i listen to this the more i realize that ive probably listened to this on its own on this channel somewhere. maybe it deserves to be 4th place but it's still painfully cursed

-the fact that it works so well with this instrumental that's pretty specifically a unique neil creation is what gets me there's very little space monkey or mafia about this but it is all niel & neil working together

-this is the uh. scandanavian version of carameldansen too, seeing as i can't understand the lyrics but dont remember what language theyre in

-layering these harmonies is very impressive i will be honest

-next up is shark which i dont think ive heard before (none of these are uploaded under these names but still) i know it's gonna be jaws but what specifically is an enigma still

-wait a minute didnt niel really recently remake this? no wait. ive been listening to the individual reuploads they did after this livestream that's why i heard this

-god this one is an absolute legend though totally deserves 3rd place. i wish i voted i just didnt think i'd heard enough niel to have a very educated opinion

-seriously if you want to listen to anything from nielciceiregamusic it should be the top 4 here theyre amazing

-shark is basically the wndrwll of jaws in the sense that it's mostly lyrics being fukced around & some harmony/instrumental shenanigans on the side. and said harmony shenanigans sound honestly super good

-sharks in the chat can

-that was going to say something more but i lost my train of thought halfway through which isnt surprising considering what i'm listening to

-oh ive reached the part with the really actually good harmonies & stuff i love it. everyone cool it!

-closertrucks ive almost certainly heard this before but i cant recognize that title it just feels faintly familiar

-what. is. this. intro. i am curious to say the least

-no i definitely have not heard this before i would remember something like this

-OH i recognize the name closer because it's one half of uhhhh that song from mouth silence what's it called rollercoaster!

-in rollercoaster there's the lyrics "i want to funk you like an animal" and all that and here i think there's the instrumental to whatever that song was this is cool

-niel also put some kind of filter over neil's voice i think which only serves to make this more surreal goodness i'm having a good and terrible time at the same time

-this one isn't one of the top 4 which i understand but it is well done.

-i'll be honest when i listened to rollercoaster i knew the vocal's original song had to sound weird but never in my life did i imagine it would sound like this

-in the thumbnail it says they use deporitaz in this which i'm still waiting for. i swear to god if i finish this album without hearing a single deporitaz track i will be very mad

-actually i may need to listen to this album into class if i hope to finish it all at once because there's about 17 minutes left on the album & 16 minutes until class starts

-nightmoving, that's from mouth dreams & apparently this rip tied for 1st place

-... i still havent listened to all of mouth dreams unfortunately so. i can't tell what's off with this.

-that's just a neil problem more than a niel one, he'll combine songs so well and often songs from long enough ago that i cant recognize the originals and just take it as a normal good song. particularly stuff like mullet with butterfly wings

-still i think i really faintly recognize the backing track here. i dont know if backing track or instrumental track is the right term to use here but it doesnt matter to me

-touch-bone telephone (i called it megalo-phone telephone in an old post of mine) is a definitely good candidate for 1st place along with this one but i'm holding out for ivanushka-tone telephone or whatever that one's been dubbed

-i dont have much to say about this one because ive not listened to a single of the original tracks involved in it but. i suppose there's some sort of contrast between the vocals & the instrumental

-somedial up next? oh a sundial rip has to be good but not sure what the some.

-flintsones.

-listen niel i know you take inspiration from SiIvagunner but. you don't have to straight up work flintstones instrumentals into sundial.

-,,,my dude is that a cat synth. oh and there's an all star whistle but that's unremarkable all things considered

-dododo. dodododoo. sure of course you'd put that in there too

-key ch. nutshack. that was the nu

-megalovania, say it aint so, this is just a medley one then. smooth by santana. seriously this is the (tachyon!!) biggest (fireflies) SiIvagunner thing youve ever done isn't it.

-understandable wanting to condense as many SiIvagunner references in one song and like. this still sounds nice, it's hard to fukc up sundial, but it still is a cacophany. may have spelled that wrong

-speaking of spelling i have a very good reason for capitalizing SiIvagunner every time. we gunner fans like our references. yeah i'm a SiIvagunner fan also

-call your dad is almost certainly also a song ive heard before by name alone i was there for the spirit phone premiere at least. tied 6th place you say? weird to hop back some places, what have you got planned for us niel?

-yep. this is from the nielciceiregamusic spirit phone premiere. what a classic, can't believe it made its way up to 6th place despite being so young

-not much to say about this one that i didnt say when listening to the premiere. this works accursedly well

-seriously who wouldve thought two spirit phones would just. slide together like this

-here comes the breakdown. ring up your dad on the phone he's off his shits

-gingerninja123 in the chat making theories love it. love this community i really do it's like an even more close-knit version of the SiIvagunner community

-this isn't a niel thing but Go Off Neil sing your goddam heart out hell yeah

-TOUCH BONE TELEPHONE YEAAAAAHA

-another 1st place tie i'm not at all surprised by that this one's a goddam legend

-there's like 2-3 versions of this. there's the one with all star at the end, there's the really sad version where this comes in at the end, & i think there's this, the full touch bone version

-just really impressive synth useage. sawtooth square or uhh. sine? wave. i dont know that much about synths i cant even ask a question about it because i dont know all the terms

-the piano is just. hella good. and here comes the uhh cello or bass or whatever! i wonder if this is an actual string instrument or if niel just uses synths for these. because the idea of irl touch-bone telephone is amazing if i must be honest

-even beyond the meme. there's already sans eye shenanigans in the spirit phone cover

-sound effects! hell yeah

-so no deporitaz in this album. that's a damn shame. i know this is just volume one but you promised niel! you promised!

-aight i have to join spanish now but i'll just let these synths (feat. once upon a time & your best friend for maximum feels) carry me away

-oh there's the lick as well in those synths as well forgot to mention

-&. all star. can't leave without it

-well that's the end. mein gott it wouldve been wonderful to be there live in person but it's wonderful all the same

#lemon demon #neil cicierega #niel ciceirega #the reason ive got very little commentary for the first 2 songs is because i started this after i was done listening to them #nielciceiregamusic #i havent the faintest clue how to tag this but si*vagunner has its own tag so why not niel #tis i #loolin liveblogs #to the world and back again

It is complete!

Here it is, after all these five months: The first chapter of The Glass Gemstone, a fic based on some wonderful angst art by @minimuii after Change Your Mind was released.

I’ll link to both the fic and the lovely art in a followup reblog, because Tumblr is dummmmbbb and won’t let links turn up in tags.

Special thanks to @scrumptiouslysuperdeer for helping me smooth out the writing a bit at the end. I hope I managed to fix that one part. ^-^’

The following is the rest of the @ list, an upload schedule, and some rambling under the cut.

Folks who asked to be @-ed: @bittersweetiepie (You asked to be @-ed twice X3. I gotchu) @tadpolequeen @cyhiraeth @steffi4chan @skyearelli @kazooie @dragon-small @bundlesofquestions-blog @icydragoness @feralsrock @colorofinsanity @witchy–mermaid @shadownight2194 @thesophiegrossi @macygracie @conniemaheswaranuniverse @mirrored-calamity

Folks who reblogged some version of the post where I talked about writing or liked it and then immediately followed me, so I decided to put them down too just in case (no shame): @diaryofadysgraphicartist @infinitenairya @tymki @pikogan @jakthekiller @annapolyanskaya @a-simple-banan @aro-probably-ace-ravenclaw @iyvls @sassybagle @jroetzer @wundergirllovesyou @weathertied @sleeps-till-noon @emely-the-hedgehog-gamer

Tumblr wouldn’t let me @ everyone for some reason? I went to the urls to see if they got changed, but they’re still there, so… I dunno. Oh well.

Upload schedule:

Chapter 2 - June 15th, 11AM CDT

Chapter 3 - June 17th, 11AM CDT

Chapter 4 - June 19th, 9PM CDT

Chapter 5/6 - June 20th, 11AM CDT

Chapter 7 - June 21st, 11AM CDT

Chapter 8 - June 23rd, 11AM CDT

Chapter 9 - June 24th, 11AM CDT

Chapter 10 - June 26th, 9PM CDT

Chapter 11 - June 27th, 12PM CDT

~And now the rambling.~

It took me… five months… to write 37K words of fic. Things came up, like my own mental health (because I make horrible decisions like writing about death while in a spiral whoops), and I had to take some breaks, but

it’s good that it took me so long, or it wouldn’t have turned out right.

I thought! I was going to write maybe 5K words! And that it would just be a sad summary of the lives of everyone after the event!!!

But then I thought, “Wait, Connie wouldn’t stand for this. She would get mad! Five stages of grief. The characters would clash.” And I just kept writing and writing until I had to put down an outline, and then I went back and wrote chapters 2 and 3 because the pacing was all wrong, and while I was stuck I learned to play the ukulele.

I wrote a song for this fic!

Not the best song, mind you, but I’ve never written a song before and I’ve only just learned to play an instrument, so you’ll have to forgive me. (I’ll upload the song when the last chapter comes out.)

I just

pppppphhhhh

I’ve never tied up anything this long. I’m usually all about short stories, incomplete one-shot deals, really… really long stories that just… keep going…

I’m happy about it.

Anyway, to wrap up the rambling, I ended up making the whole thing about healing. Like a theme.

Appropriate?

There are some warnings in the author’s note, so keep a look out if you need to, but… There’s more to it than just 37K words of angst.

We’ll see how it goes.

Because I’m still not over what a mind-boggling disaster the whole process of creating that pixel animation from yesterday was, I actually want to share the painful details with you! Which is extremely unprofessional of me, as everyone who has felt any ounce of respect towards me or my art will absolutely lose it hahah, but the good thing is I’m not a professional so it doesn’t matter for real.

So, the beginning part I have already told: I drew the whole thing, looked at it and decided that I actually want to make it look good. There’s really no way to do that in pixel art without putting every shitty little pixel down individually, so that’s the method I used while redrawing 90 % of the thing (only some of the coloring could be saved). During this I redrew Näkki’s braid I think 4 times and the northern lights 2,5 times.

Then I once again looked at it and thought “man, this really would be neat as an animation”. The idea had been in my mind ever since the beginning, but I never intended to truly chase it. Well now I did, but because I’m an idiot the whole thing was on like 3 layers and I had to manually separate elements from each other to make anything work. (During this I actually made a cool discovery though! Gimp usually considers one layer as one frame of animation, but one layer folder is also just one frame! This made things so much easier.) First I made Näkki move, and then I added some slight movement to water, stars and the light effects on the ice. Then it was the northern lights which were really tedious... Because I sort of forgot that I had drawn a separate base form for them that I was supposed to be able to edit easily. Whoops. But what can I say: at this point the whole thing was already in three separate files: the first one contained a non-pixel sketch and reference images, the second one was the actual pixelated piece and the third one, which I was now working with, had the animation. The base was on the second file, so of course I never remembered it existed!

But no matter, the thing was now basically ready to go! So I once again did the mistake of looking at it... And realized the animation wasn’t paced the way I wanted. (This is when I posted the preview image.) Näkki’s breathing looked too fast, and slowing down the whole thing looked just awkward. I was afraid I’d have to make a couple of new frames for it, but after sleeping a night I decided I’d instead duplicate all the frames and make Näkki and the background elements move at different paces. That seemed like a good compromise... In theory. In practice? I would’ve survived with so, so much less if I’d just added the two frames like I originally meant to.

How would I even describe the mess that followed... Even though I had only 3-4 layers in one layer folder (GOD why didn’t I separate things even more than I did?!) some of them had several separate objects moving in different paces. It was a total nightmare and if I had to explain where everything is in like a month, I would likely not understand it even myself. =‘D The stars and the ice effects had three frames that went back and forth and the water had three frames but it looped instead. The northern lights had... Four frames? They also went back and forth, just like Näkki who had only three frames. But Näkki’s frames had a rhythm of 2-2-4 frames instead of the normal 1-1-1. Then there was also Näkki’s breath clouds. First there was maybe 5 frames of them, but when I doubled the frame count I drew more in-betweens for them. In the end it looked off because they were so close to Näkki who moved much slower, so I actually deleted the new frames and made the original ones move on 2-2-2 speed.

At this point I have no idea how many things I had redrawn, because everything was constantly this close to just falling apart, so I had pretty much not enough brain power to keep count of them. But... Somehow I stumbled to the finish line! And saved it as a gif, watched it to see the possible damage the compression had done and... Was fairly satisfied. Except for the color of the sky, which originally had a gradient in it. The gradient absolutely didn’t work with gif palette, so I went back and made the sky colors more flat. Aaand that somehow left some weird stripes of the original sky color into a few frames. Okay, this is fine, I can deal with it. I delete the stripes. Now the water animation is completely fucked up! At this point I was too tired to make the connection between deleting the stripes and the messed up water, so all I could think was that I just hadn’t noticed the thing before and it was actually gif optimization that had done the damage. I go back and basically redo the animation without optimization, which takes about three tries because I am TIRED and always lose a frame or two somewhere and it’s easier to just do the thing over from the beginning than start searching what went wrong and where. Finally all looks as it should! Except now I have to change the sky again. And delete the stripes. And nOW THE WATER IS FUCKED AGAIN.

Now I finally realized that the water actually had some of the same color as the stripes I had deleted, and those pixels got accidentally deleted, too. I laugh and cry and correct my mistake. The thing is fucking finally finished! I go to sleep and decide to return to the shitshow tomorrow.

Next day I come to assess the damage, but fortunately I don’t find much. The most horrifying thing is that when I was already dead tired I had actually overwritten a wrong file at some point, so I had replaced the cryptid animation from last summer with a messed up version of this animation. (It was named “cryptid” and this was “colors”, so they were close to each other.) Thank god I had uploaded it to several places on internet, so I could just download it back to my computer! Besides that the animation still looked decent, but I still decide to fix one little thing with Näkki’s hair. I’ll do it, save it and upload it to dA. And realize I had forgotten to save it as an animation. Thank the merciful gods of the universe I hadn’t shut down Gimp just yet, because if I had done that I would’ve lost... A lot of work and would’ve needed to create the animation for 65674564236145th time.

Soooo yeah, that’s finally it. I saved the thing again as an animation and swore to never look at it too closely again, because doing that is apparently really, really cursed.

The lesson of the day: actually plan your animations in order to not end up like this! =‘‘‘D

Tentative 2020 Schedule

Long post, head’s up.

I get asked a lot about stories going on hiatus, which they never really are, but I’m normally busy with a lot of things, and they’re not always priority for me on a daily basis. So, time slips past me, and it takes a while to upload.

Still, I know how it feels to be burned by fanfic writers (happened to me a lot as a kid, and I didn’t have blogs to follow when I was young for updates, lol). To try giving a vague/rough idea of how I think my posting patterns have settled, I’ll post a mini-schedule kind of thing here.

This year will be divided into quarters (Q#), and within those months, I’ll try updating one or two of my major fanfics. It’s subject to change, hopefully for more than less, hence the ‘tentative‘ bit.

But, it’s also possible that I might not fulfill these times, so, if a period of time goes by and nothing’s updated? Short version is that I suck, idk folks.

So, let’s see how this goes and if I’ll abide by this for the year.

...

Q1 (January - March)

Planned update for: Eternally Never Yours, Chapter 45

Q2 (April - June)

Planned update for: Melting Gelid Roses, Chapter 27 Pushing update for: Eternally Never Yours, Chapter 46

Q3 (July - September)

Planned update for: Melting Gelid Roses, Chapter 28 Planned update for: Eternally Never Yours, Chapter 47 Pushing update for: Melting Gelid Roses, Chapter 29

Q4 (October - December)

Pushing update for: Melting Gelid Roses, Chapter 30, planned finale

...

Explanations below the cut.

...

Ok, first is the planned vs pushing: ‘planned‘ means I’m going to work at doing those and try to get them done within that period, while ‘pushing‘ means I’m going to see if I’ve got the time during that period to pump out another.

Now, for the specifics on each.

...

Q1: I’m currently working on the next chapter of the Super Mario fanfic, Eternally Never Yours. This is a big chapter, because I’m writing up “guidelines” for magic and those that use it. Not only will this be something that I’m writing for this fanfic, but it might be something I look into when I’m writing in the future and original content, so I’m practicing on that.

On top of this, I need to refer backwards to how I’ve written certain characters, as they haven’t had major roles for 4 years. So, I’m trying to maintain continuity and make sure they still act the same as they did, while certainly expanding on their roles. Also, I’m addressing specific character dynamics, some which people have been excited for and criticized about.

My original plan was to get this out in January, but that’s unlikely to happen, so I’m hoping to have it ready by the end of March. Does that mean it will take until then to complete and post? Gracious, I certainly hope not. But, I’ve miscalculated by assuming the time I’d have for writing in the past, so I’m giving myself the appropriate cushion room to work within.

...

Q2: Up next will be the Pokémon fanfic, Melting Gelid Roses. This will be a continuation from the previous chapter, but also redefines roles for characters. Well, some redefining, others getting spotlights they’ve desperately needed, and several more continuing to be their best. Slight spoilers: it’s going to be a combat chapter. If you didn’t see that coming, there you go.

This is the beginning of the end for this fanfic, and I’m planning on moving onto the sequel after it wraps up this year. This chapter will be the last time I’ll be writing certain characters until the next story, so I need to make sure they’ve got their stage set. At least one minor character will be getting a boosted role in the next story, and it’s likely going to be more than one, and it’s not based only on the soldiers of the main kingdom. So, I’ve got important pivots to set up.

At the same time, since summer is coming and I’m praying that I’ll start getting more free time, I’m going to try my best to get an update for Eternally Never Yours out during this time as well. I’m not holding myself to that, so it’s possible that this update will be pushing back the other ones that follow. But, I want to try getting it out there. This one returns to the main romance of the story, and will hopefully be a resting chapter. After all, they’re coming back from the assault on Peach’s Castle, so, they’ll need to cool down.

If I’m keeping pace with my updates, these both should be out by June. If not, I’ll try to let readers know.

...

Q3: For whatever reason, I think my largest amount of free time exists somewhere between July and September. In my head, that doesn’t sound right, but I’m pretty sure my consistent updates tend to roll out during this time, on a yearly basis. I could be wrong, I’m not fact checking myself on that, so if I’m wildly off, whoops. Nevertheless, I’m planning heaviest around here.

There will be a period for two updates to the Pokémon fanfic. Again, I’m planning on having this one finally come to a close, and I’m pretty much scrounging up my best efforts to end it this year. No, that’s not a guarantee, but I’m really giving it a strong effort, because I do want it to be done before 2021. So, this is when I’m planning for the double update.

First chapter returns to the Empire for the war fallout, and shows where everyone is at following their recoveries and catching up. I’m hoping to properly capture the grieving process and melancholic nature that should be during this time, because hey, other characters died, and the main cast should be shaken by that. Hard. The follow-up chapter will shift the focus to characters that were also impacted by these events, and while they’re not normally main cast, they’re going to appear in the future, and need their time to adjust as well.

Finally, I’m also planning on including an update for the Super Mario fanfic in between those two chapters above. This one will be sending heroes back into their battles as well, and we’re going to finally address the seventh area, the Sky Kingdom. It’s going to be the next location for Peach, Luigi, and the others to fight back for. The boss there will be someone important, though, so...wonder how that’ll turn out for both sides.

Since this is a tentative schedule, stuff might get pushed back, and I’m piling hardest on here, so I can’t promise that it’ll work out. But, this gives us something to go by.

...

Q4: Hello to my absolute worst quarter of the year to update. The holiday season bogs me down without mercy each and every year. This is when I lie to myself and think, “I can probably do two updates, there are 3 months, I’ve got time for that.” Then reality ensues, and I realize, “No, I don’t have that kind of free time for myself.“ It’s possible that I might put nothing out after October or November, and by December? Forget it.

In spite of that, I’m going to do my best to make this the period for Melting Gelid Roses to finally reach its ending. Yes, that does break the balance of updates. Eternally Never Yours is not ending this year, however, I know that for a fact. So, it can take a little time to rest while the Pokémon fanfic wraps up. Like this year, I will probably start 2021 working on the Super Mario fanfic again.

As this is the final chapter of MGR, it basically settles affairs for the main cast and collects everyone back together. What does that mean? They’re repositioning for the third story. When’s that going to start? Hopefully next year. But as the year ends, so will MGR. There’s more to come after, but this will be the second book’s closing, and it will need some prep to get there.

There’s a plan that I’ve debating on following through with, which will involve audience participation. If I can get the third story’s titles brainstormed by this time, that will be included. But the main concept depends on how I want to proceed with select characters, if I want their stories to end with MGR as they are, or if they will do more. Should I decide on trying this, then I’m going to be asking readers to help me narrow those selections down from several to one or two only. This is meant to be a cryptic tease, so that’s all I’ll mention.

Again and again, this is my absolute worst update quarter. If I don’t get to this chapter here, or if I needed to push other updates back, then it’s spilling over to 2021. I don’t want to, but I’m not going to crush myself over updating strictly on time.

...

These are plans, and plans are malleable, they change. If I don’t abide by these, please don’t turn around with, “BuT EcHo YoU tOLd uS ThIs!” I’m human, life changes at the drop of a dime, this is free reading, things happen, and this is not a committed schedule. These are guidelines I’m hoping to follow, but I might end up tumbling off the path.

This is meant to give readers a place to refer to so they can check and see what my plans are. Months will go by, I won’t update. But, this can give a little comfort that I’ve got something in the works for this year at various intervals.

Please understand that I am trying, please understand that it’s a juggling act, and please understand that I have other, real world matters that will override priorities for these stories.

But please also feel free to continue interacting and asking questions beyond update periods. Sometimes the strongest way to help encourage me to persist is feedback, and interacting following chapters. If I’m in a period where I haven’t updated, feel free to mention what your favorite chapters, scenes, and characters were. Feel free to mention some hopes you have for the story; who knows, that might influence me.

Thank you all for your support so far. I’ll continue to try my best.

Yokai Watch 4 Demo Translation

A demo of Yokai Watch 4 was playable at the Tokyo Game Show 20018. Level-5 has recently uploaded footage of this demo to their official youtube channel.

I made a translation of the demo’s dialouge, which you can find under the cut.

Please note that this will contain potential spoilers for the game, so proceed with caution!

Intro:

(The first screen with a lot of text just goes over how this is not a finished product and might have some issues still.)

Natsume: ふふふ明日からいよいよ待ちに待った夏休み！ Hehehe, starting tomorrow, it'll finally be summer vacation!

Natsume: まずは何しようっかな？なーか考えてるだけでも楽しい〜♪ What should I do first? Just thinking about it is fun〜♪

Natsume: ん？アキノリから…？何の用だろ？ Hm? From Akinori? What does he want?

Natsume: あ〜っ忘れてた！「怪奇案件」の調査っ！！ Ahhh! I forgot about the "Strange Case" investigation!!

Dialouges as Natsume goes about town:

Objective: 外に出かけよう！ Head outside!

Akinori: なあナツメ。今日の調査だけどさ…。 Hey, Natsume. We're supposed to be investigating today...

Natsume: ゴメン！今思い出したこと！でどこに集まるんだっけ…？ Sorry! I just remembered! So, where are we meeting up...?

Akinori: えー忘れちゃったのかよ〜。おうぎ公園で集合だよ！ Don't tell me you forgot. We're meeting at Ōgi Park!

Akinori: オレちょっと遅れていくから先にトウマと合流してくれ！ I'm gonna be a bit late, so go ahead and meet Touma without me!

Komasan: ふむぅ… アキノリの家とはまた違ったよさがあるのう。 Hmm... This place is different from Akinori's house.

Komasan: とくにこのソファ… 昼寝をするときに気持ちようさそうだわい。 This sofa in particular... It seems like taking a nap on it would be quite comfortable.

Objective: おうぎ公園に行こう！ Go to Ōgi Park!

Touma: ナツメ急いで来れる？緊急事態が発生した！ Could you come quick, Natsume? It's an emergency!

Touma: あまり時間がなさそうなんだ。できるだけ早く来てくれ！ I don't have much time. Please come as fast as you can!

Natsume: ちょっと！一体なにが… …ってもう切れてるし！ Hang on! What the heck are you... ...Ugh, he hung up already!

(Note: I'm assuming they're on the phone here? If they're texting or somthing it'd be something like "he signed off already" or the like.)

Micchy: ナツメさん！目的地の公園はミニマップでご確認を！ Miss Natsume! You may confirm your destination on the mini-map!

Jibanyan: どうやら調査どころじゃないみたいだな。今度はいったい何のさわぎニャン？ Doesn't look like you're investigating. What's the deal this time, nyan?

Meeting with Touma:

Natsume: トウマ！一体どうしたの！？緊急事態って…！？ Touma! What happened?! What's the emergency...?!

Touma: 僕といっしょにこの子… マナミちゃんを守ってほしいんだ。 This girl with me is Manami... I'd like you to protect her.

Manami: 誰かがじぃ〜っと私のこと見てくるの。お外で遊んでてもお家にいてもずっと…。 Someone has been intensely glaring at me. Even when I'm playing outside by myself, when I'm at home, always...

Touma: マナミちゃんに妖怪ウォッチが強く反応した…。 My Yokai Watch showed a strong reaction around Manami...

Natsume: つまり妖怪のしわざってワケね！うん！たしかに緊急事態かも…！！ In other words, this is the work of a yokai! Yep! That's probably an emergency...!!

Touma: この気配…！やはりまだ近くにいるみたいだ。 This presence...! Looks like it's still close by after all.

Touma: ナツメここは君の妖魔レーダーで妖怪の居場所を突き止めてくれ！ Natsume, use your Yōma Radar here to figure out the yokai's position!

Natsume: わかったやってむる！！ Alright, I'll try that!!

Natsume: みつけた…！あそこね！！ I found it...! It's over there!!

Touma: よしあとは僕にまかせて！マナミちゃんのことたのんだよ。 Alright, leave the rest to me! Please look after Manami.

Objective: 隠れている妖怪をさがそう！ Look for the hidden yokai!

Touma: そこにいるのは分かってるぞ！さあ出てこい！ I know you're there! Now show yourself!

Touma: なっ… こいつは人体模型か！！なぜマナミちゃんを…！？ Wha... This guy is a human anatomy model?! Then why would he...?!

Jinta: きゃっ丸見えになっちゃった！おお前… 許さないぞ！！ Eek! You got me fully exposed! Y-you... I won't forgive you!!

Dialouges during the battle with Jinta and his cohorts:

(Note: When the battle starts, it says "Jinta and co. appeared!" The two selectable options are "Battle Start" and "Stopwatching". I do not know what the latter does, as the person playing never selects it.)

Whisper: さあ！妖怪たちといっしょに戦いましょう！ Now! Fight together with the yokai!

Whisper: (X) で妖気拳を使えますよ！ガンガン攻撃でうぃっす！ You can use a Yōki-ken with (X)! That one packs a punch, whis!

(Note: 妖気拳/Yōki-ken would translate to "Yōki Fist" or "Yōki Strike", with "Yōki" being something like yokai energy.)

Whisper: (ZR)で「わざ」発動！強力攻撃ができますよ！ With (ZR) you active your "Moves"! You can do powerful attacks!

Whisper: 「わざ」は(R)を押すたびに切り替えができますよ！ You can switch between your "Moves" by pressing (R)!

Whisper: 敵をよ〜く狙いたいときは (ZL)の「ねらう」です！ When you reeeally want to aim for an enemy, go for "Aim" with (ZL)!

Whisper: (ZL)押しながら(A)でターゲットピン発射です！ When holding (ZL), you can fire a Target Pin with (A)!

Whisper: 味方の妖怪たちが１体に集中攻撃してくれますよ！ Your yokai allies will focus their attacks on a single target!

Whisper: 「鬼の手」キター！！ (X)攻撃がパワーアップです！ That's the "Oni's Hand"!! Now the (X) Attack got more power!

~勝利~ ~Victory~

After the Battle:

Natsume: やったねトウマ！これでひと安心だね！！ You did it, Touma! This should take care of that for now!!

Touma: ああみんなのおかげだよ。とにかく無事にすんでよかった。 Yeah, thanks to everyone's help. Anyway, I'm glad you didn't get hurt.

Natsume: あっ！逃げちゃった！？ Ah! He ran away?!

Manami: あの子は…！ねぇちょっと待ってー！！ He's...! Hey, please wait!!

Natsume: マナミちゃんまで？！どこ行くのー！！ Manami, too?! Where are you going?!

Touma: もしかしてさっきの妖怪のこと知っていたのか…？ Could it be that she knows that yokai...?

Natsume: かもしれない… でも今はとにかくマナミちゃんを追いかけないと！ She might... But, right now we have to go after them!

Dialouges as Touma and co. go after Manami & Jinta:

Objective: さくら元町小学校に行こう！ Go to Sakura Motomachi Elementary School!

Touma: さっきの妖怪が向かったのはさくら元町小学校の方だな。 I think that yokai went towards Sakura Motomachi Elementary School.

Natsume: なんだか嫌な予感がする… トウマ急ごう！ I got a bad feeling about it... Let's hurry, Touma!

Micchy: ミッチーセンサーによればマナミさんもこの道を通ったようだ。 My Micchy Sensor tells me that Miss Manami has gone along this way, too.

Micchy: …おっとミッチーセンサーについてえは質問は受け付けていないぞ！ ...Whoops, I do not accept questions about my Micchy Sensor!

Natsume: あっ見つけた！ Ah- Found him!

Jibanyan: どうやらもう隠れる気はないようだニャン。次は本気で暴れやるぜ。 Looks like he's fed up with hiding, nyan. Nyow he's gonna rampage for real.

Touma: 待ってナツメ！なにかがおかしい…！ Wait, Natsume! Something's wrong...!

Dialouges during the battle with Jingeki:

Boss Title: 人体模型の巨人〜ジンゲキ〜 Human Anatomy Model Titan ~Jingeki~

Natsume: これ… シャドウサイド！？なんて大きさなの…！！ Is that... his Shadowside?! Its so big...!!

Touma: ものすごい妖気だ… でも今は戦うしかない！ What an incredible yōki... But, I've got no choice but to fight him, now!

Jingeki: ウガ…？ナンカ落ッコチタ…？ UGAHH...? DID SOMETHING FALL OUT...?

Whisper: ムムッ！？攻撃すると内蔵がポロリす��ようです！ Hmmh?! Seems that your attacks made his organs loose!

Natsume: 小腸いただき！！いけるよこの調子！！ Got his small intestine!! Keep going like this!!

Whisper: 横隔膜がポロリでうぃす！なんともレアな内臓ですね！ You loosened his diaphragm, whis! And what a rare organ that one is!

Whisper: 焼き肉で言う「ハラミ」の部位にございまっす！！ It is the part we would call "skirt steak" if we were grilling meat!!

Whisper: もう一度(X)と(A)同時押しで「雷鳴鉄槌斬り」発動です！ If you press (X) and (A) at the same time once more, you will active "Raimei Tettsui Kiri"!

(Note: 雷鳴鉄槌斬り/Raimei Tettsui Kiri is Fudōmyōō's Soultimate.)

Whisper: タイミングよくボタンを押すとテンションアップ！ If you time your button presses well, the tension will go up!

Natsume: トウマおつかれさま！これで一件落着だね！！ Good job, Touma! Case closed, I'd say!!

Akinori: あれ解決しちゃったの！？じゃあオレの出番は〜？ Huh? You solved it?! What about my turn...?

After the Battle:

Jinta: マ…ナミ…さん… ごめんなさい。ボクのせいで怖い思いをさせてしまって…。 Ma... nami... I'm sorry. You got scared because of me...

Manami: ううん私のほうこそ… とても大事なこと忘れちゃってたの。 No, it's my fault... I forgot about something really important.

Jinta: えっ…？ Huh...?

Manami: あなたは理科室にいた人体模型くん… だよね？ You're the human anatomy model from the science room... aren't you?

Manami: 放課後ひとりで落ち込んでいた私の話をだまってそばで聞いてくれた… When I was alone and sad after school, you would silently be beside me, and listen to me...

Manami: 私… 思い出したの。 I... remember.

Manami: とても大切な「ともだち」だって… You were a very important "friend"...

Jinta: ううう… マナミさん… ありがとう…。 *Sob*... Manami... Thank you...

Ending:

Natsume: あれ？妖怪ウォッチエルダが… Huh? The Yokai Watch Eruda...

Touma: 何かに反応している…！？ Is it reacting to something...?!

Natsume: 君は… Wait...

Natsume: もしかして… Are you...?

After the Demo is over, we are shown a screen with the various incarnations of Jibanyan (and also Junior), with the words "Thank you for playing!" in both Japanese in English. Below that, it essentially says something like "Look forward to the actual version!"

But the video is not over, and at the very end we are shown what is called a "Rare Event". It plays out exactly like the previous ending cutscene, expect Fumika (Katie) steps out of the door instead of Keita (Nate).

That’s it for this demo, but I have also translated the game’s trailer here.

Some of y’all got to dumbingofage.com yesterday and saw the first strip, and later it turned into the latter strip. WHY, everyone asks, WHY???

Because three months ago, I wrote the first strip, and though, like, it was funny, sure, I wanted Jason and Walky to be chummy. They’re going on a friendly drinky tour. Jason shouldn’t be yelling at Walky. That throws a big roadblock in my narrative. They’re pals! (And also Becky shouldn’t miss an opportunity to be pissy at Dorothy.) And so the next day I essentially rewrote it from the third panel on.

Anyway, I woke up yesterday at about 12:30am, randomly, from my food-poisoned haze to realize, oh, huh, I never uploaded the updated version of the strip three months prior, WHOOPS.

Normally I’d be more on the ball. Y’know, sitting at my computer, ready and on-hand to curb the number of people who saw the wrong strip to a few dozen instead of Everybody. But I had to buy some frozen burgers from Target that made me and everyone in my family lose 5 pounds of throat-and-ass juice.

the road trip series - chapter 4

AN: I’m sorry this has taken me so long to upload! Trust me to pick the Worst Possible Time to start writing a multi-chapter fic...whoops. I’m really sorry I can’t promise a regular update schedule, but I’m trying my best to write content that I’m happy with and that I hope you will be happy with; I’d rather focus on the quality of the chapters rather than how quickly they’re published, you know what I mean? Anyway, that’s enough rambling from me. Here’s Chapter 4, hope you guys enjoy it! - Danielle

ff.net version | the road trip series

Chapter 4

At Alya’s suggestion, they decide to make a few scenic stops along the way to Marseille. She figures that this way they’ll get to see a little more of the non-Paris edition of France as well as have time to relax and break from the intense driving. Or at least Alya needs a break, especially after the last tortuous forty-five minutes.

The traffic had, thankfully, dissipated and they were finally on the move again driving at just over 100km/h. It was great; they were more energised, they were blasting The Lion King soundtrack, Nino and Adrien were scream-shouting a load of nonsense that only vaguely resembled the actual lyrics, and Marinette had control of the camera, collecting footage for Alya’s blog.

“Smile, Nino!” Marinette giggles, zooming in ridiculously close to Nino’s face. He grins, crossing his eyes and holding up a peace sign as he and Adrien continue to dramatically re-enact the entire Circle of Life scene from The Lion King as best they can in the somewhat cramped backseat of the car.

Marinette turns the camera to Adrien next and he sticks his tongue out at her. Marinette huffs. In true Adrien fashion, he still manages to look abso-fucking-lutely perfect. Curse that flawless face of his. Curse that gorgeous hair of his. Curse – actually no, scratch that. He’s too beautiful to be cursed. Marinette sighs audibly, oblivious to Alya’s slight snickering from the driver’s seat.

“You okay there, Mari?” Adrien’s question snaps her out of her little space out and she promptly turns red, for perhaps the umpteenth time today alone.

“Me? Yes of course! You’re great! I mean – you’re fine! NO. That is to say, I’m fine. Not to say that you’re not fine because of course you are, right? You’re a model! Um…but of course you already know that…why wouldn’t you know that….ha.”

Adrien glances at Nino, eyebrows raised questioningly. Nino simply shrugs in return.

“How about we pretend I never opened my stupid mouth, okay?” Marinette laughs nervously, swiftly turning around in her seat to face the front. “Kill me.” She mouths to Alya before she buries her flushed face in her hands.

In a valiant effort to change the subject, Nino decides that now is the perfect time for a playlist brainstorming session. “So Maribro. I was thinking that we add a new playlist to our repertoire.”

Marinette swivels around again in her chair (making a great effort to avoid making eye contact with Adrien as she does so) to face Nino. “As much as I’d love to, I’m pretty sure you have violated the Playlist Rules, specifically rule number one, on more than one occasion.”

Nino gulps audibly.

“As a result of this disregard for the sacred rules,” Marinette continues. “I, as sole rule-abiding Playlist Executive, do henceforth revoke your Playlist Executive licence until further notice.” She grins smuggle and winks at him before spinning back around again in her chair.

“But that makes it a playlist dictatorship! I will not stand for this kind of oppression! Liberté, égalité, fraternité! Vive la France!” Nino presses his fist to his heart in what is supposed to be a patriotic manner. In fact, he gets a little too enthusiastic and winds up punching himself in the process.

Marinette retorts back that if Nino was so in favour of democracy then he would abide by the agreed rules. The argument (that is, if it can be called an argument) goes on for another couple minutes before Alya decides that it’s time to intervene. Honestly, if she had known that she would end up playing peacemaker between two apparent five-year-olds, she would not have signed up for this job.

In her sharp ‘I-am-in-charge-and-you-will-not-question-my-authority’ tone (which the past ten years of babysitting her sisters has allowed her to perfect), Alya declares that Nino is on Playlist Time-Out indefinitely, Marinette is Chief Playlist Commander, and Adrien is Assistant Playlist Consultant. She herself refuses to be part of this playlist nonsense because, frankly, there is nothing wrong with just hitting shuffle and seeing where they end up. The highly specific playlist names fiasco is just ridiculous, in Alya’s humble opinion.

Nino protests, claiming that the rules specifically ban Adrien from any playlist-related activities, to which Marinette points out that Nino cannot hold such a gross double standard concerning rule breaking, and Alya feels her eyes roll so hard that she’s pretty sure she will soon be able to see the inside of her skull.

“Everyone shut the hell up or so help me god I will turn this car right around and we will all go straight home!” Alya yells. She figures that this trick still works on her younger sisters, even though they’re now teenagers, so it’s worth a try.

The car falls silent and, surprisingly, it remains like that for the better part of fifteen minutes.

Alya breathes deeply and smiles serenely. “See? Was that so difficult? All you have to do is keep calm, breathe, and- FUCKING HELL, YOU MORON! WATCH WHERE THE HELL YOU’RE DRIVING, ASSHOLE! USE YOUR FREAKING TURN SIGNAL! I SWEAR TO GOD I CAN’T CATCH TWO MINUTES OF PEACE! OH, YOU WANNA FLIP YOUR MIDDLE FINGER AT ME?! TWO CAN PLAY AT THAT GAME, BUDDY!”

Marinette and Nino exchange knowing looks and Marinette slams the play button on the ‘we-need-to-distract-alya-otherwise-she-will-get-into-a-fight’ playlist. All the while Adrien looks a little terrified in his corner of the car. He really shouldn’t be surprised at Alya’s outbursts, but he’s always slightly shocked that so small a person can house all of that tension. Sometimes he can practically see the steam coming out of her ears as if she was a cartoon character.

Alya scowls at the idiot who is now driving in front of her and grips the steering wheel until her knuckles turn white. If there’s one thing she cannot stand, it’s reckless drivers. People make mistakes every now and again when they drive, that’s just natural – Alya gets that. But this idiot was just blatantly ignoring all driving etiquette. Nothing pisses her off more than that.

“Hey, we’re coming up to Saint-Étienne, how about we take a break?” She suggests. Everyone is only too happy to comply.

Saint-Étienne is quite pretty, Marinette decides. They grab some pastries at a local café and make their way to the public gardens in the centre of the town, looking out at the architectural bandstand structure, taking in the calm atmosphere, and revelling in its stark contrasts to the hustle and bustle of Paris. Nino and Alya decide to take a walk around the gardens, leaving Adrien and Marinette alone on the bench.

“Can you imagine how awesome it would be to see an actual band playing on the stand?” Adrien grins. Marinette nods in agreement; it really would be a sight. “I can see it so clearly in my head,” Adrien continues. “Either a jazz-swing-blues band or an orchestra, I haven’t quite decided yet, and fairy lights – actually no, lanterns – strung up everywhere, people dancing around. It would be great.”

Marinette rests her elbows on her knees and her head in her hands. “Sounds like quite the visual you’ve thought up there,” she smiles. “It sounds really nice.” She does her very best to not imagine that very image in the context of their wedding. Reel it in, Mari. Don’t do this again.

Adrien stretches his arms out. There’s a little voice in his head telling him to pull the cliché fake-yawn move so that he can rest his arm around Marinette’s shoulder but he tells this voice to shut up and folds his arms behind his head instead.

“I feel like Alya needs a break from driving.” Marinette says, between bites of her pain-au-chocolat. “I think she’s hit her limit.”

Adrien nods, sipping his coffee. He winces as he feels his taste buds disappear and is hit with a sudden wave of nostalgia. “Hey, Mari, remember that school trip we took to London?” That trip will always remain one of his favourite memories. It was the first time his father had actually willingly trusted him with some independence, encouraged it, actually.

“Yeah, that was a great trip.” Play it cool, Mari. Cool, collected, no squealing.

“I just got hit with some major déjà vu,” he laughs. Marinette loves his laugh; his eyes go all sparkly and they crinkle at the edges. She still doesn’t hear him laugh enough, but she’s glad that it’s becoming a more frequent occurrence. “Remember being stuck with me the whole train ride there and back?”

“Oh my gosh, how could I forget? You practically force-fed be overpriced snacks and wouldn’t let me pay you back!” Marinette pokes him in the shoulder accusingly in mock outrage.

“Well I wasn’t going to let you starve, was I? And besides, from what I remember you declared that you were ‘willing and ready to just marry this popcorn already’.” He pokes her right back.

“Don’t use my own words against me!” Marinette huffs, folding her arms across her chest and sinking slightly into the bench. Adrien simply smirks at her and holy frick he should not be allowed to be that hot. Granted, he is a model and she is fully aware of that but, nevertheless, he should not look that fricking hot. In a strange moment of self-control, she does not blush and instead opts for sticking her tongue out at him like the mature adult she is.

Adrien is somewhat taken aback by Marinette’s sudden ability to stay cool and flirt back (yes, he will allow himself to believe that she is flirting) with him. He watches as she quirks her eyebrow before sticking her tongue out at him (her nose scrunches up in this really cute way) and he is struck with the realisation that Marinette manages to look both freaking adorable and actually kind of hot at the same time. He gulps slightly, turning slightly red when Marinette looks at him questioningly, and silently berates himself. The tables have really turned this time.

In an attempt to distract herself from the fact that she not only flirted shamelessly with Adrien Agreste but succeeded in making him bush, Marinette looks up at the sky. Adrien watches her as she squints at a cloud and chews her lip slightly and he finds himself having to also look up at the sky before his imagination runs away with him.

“Is it just me or does that cloud look like a duck wearing high-heels?” Marinette wonders aloud.

For a second Adrien simply stares at Marinette incredulously. The thought is so abstract and outright weird that he then bursts out laughing. “What?” he manages to spit out in between wheezes of laughter. “A duck wearing – how?”

“I’m being totally serious, Agreste.” Marinette deadpans. “Look, if you tilt your head that way and then quint your eyes very, very slightly.” Adrien does as she says and actually, it does kind of look like a duck wearing high-heels. He’ll give her that one, even if it is bizarre.

Seemingly out of nowhere, a ball flies towards them. A small girl, maybe about six or seven, stands a little way away, calling out an apology and running towards them although unable to outrun the ball.

“Adrien, watch your head!” Marinette exclaims, skilfully volleying the ball in the direction of the girl from where she’s awkwardly sitting, half-twisted to face the girl, on the bench. The girl runs closer to catch the ball and thank Marinette.

“Thanks! That was really cool!” The girl gushes to Marinette, tucking the ball under her arm and brushing her messy bangs from her eyes. She grins widely and Marinette chuckles at the fact that she’s missing a tooth. “Hey, aren’t you the guy who’s on the front of all those magazines? My sister Alma has all those magazines and posters and I’m pretty sure she’s in love with you. I’m Jaqueline, by the way. I guess I’ll tell Alma that she’s out of luck because your girlfriend is way prettier than she is and she just saved your life, and your face too, I guess. My sister’s over there by the way, I should probably get back. Do you think you could teach me how to do that? Alma is too busy writing her essay. I don’t get why she would come outside just to write an essay, she said it was something about ‘changing her environment’ or something.”

Marinette flushes red for a second but quickly recovers. She’s always amazed by how much kids can just talk and talk and talk. She’s also a little startled by how fearless this kid is; didn’t anyone teach her about stranger danger?

“Okay, Jaqueline,” Marinette begins. “How about you run back to your sister and bring her over here?” Marinette suggests. She leans in to whisper conspiratorially to the child. “That way, Alma can meet my friend Adrien over here, who’s not my boyfriend, and I can teach you to volley. Sound like a plan?” She grins as Jaqueline nods in affirmation and skips back to where her sister sits.

A short while later, after a particularly shrill shriek from where Jaqueline and Alma are, Adrien is looking slightly uncomfortable but more or less calm as Alma squeals and talks and then squeals some more. He’s used to the fangirl culture, but it’s been a while since he’s had to listen to a star-struck seventeen-year-old tell him facts about…well…himself. For the most part, Alma is nice though. He glances over to where Marinette is teaching Jaqueline to volley. He didn’t know she was so good with kids, he’s really in awe of her, to be completely honest.

Marinette catches Adrien’s glance and smiles, shrugging her shoulders slightly. She turns her attention back to Jaqueline, who stands a few feet away. “You want to make sure that your hands are firmly interlocked when you volley. If your stance is strong, your volley will be strong. If you don’t have that control, you won’t be able to get the ball as high as you want. Got it?”

“Got it.” Jaqueline sticks her tongue out in concentration, readying herself as Marinette gently volleys the ball towards her. The first couple attempts are disastrous and Adrien finds himself ducking a great deal, except for one unfortunate occasion on which the ball hits him square in the face. Marinette laughs. A lot.

After about twenty minutes, Alma, somewhat mournfully, decides that it’s time for them to go. Marinette and Adrien bid the two girls goodbye, agreeing to take a picture with them before they leave, before settling on the grass to continue cloud watching.

Across the gardens, Alya and Nino sit on the edge of the fountain, hands intertwined and Alya’s head resting on Nino’s shoulder. Nino smiles fondly down at her and his heartbeat speeds up ever so slightly. Even after five years of dating he’s still as lovestruck as he was as a teenager, maybe even more so.

He wants to do something special for Alya this year, especially seeing as last year their anniversary celebration consisted of ordering an extra-large pizza and watching reruns of I Love Lucy. He has nothing against I Love Lucy, per se; after all, it was helping Alya with her English fluency for her internship, but it wasn’t necessarily how he imagined their anniversary would be spent. He’s thinking something a little fancier this year, something a little more meaningful.

Sometimes he’s not sure how he got so lucky but he figures it’s best not to question it. If this is what the Universe wants for him he’ll happily take it.

“You’re quiet, everything okay?” Alya nudges him and lifts her head off his shoulder to look at him.

“Yeah, I’m great, babe,” Nino presses a kiss to her temple. “Just contemplating whether or not I can successfully push you into this fountain without getting dragged in myself.”

Alya snorts and swats him away. She knows Nino too well at this point; when he gets quiet like that it means he’s thinking about something serious. Lord knows he can’t keep his mouth shut for more than two minutes under normal circumstances. Her eyes rest on some squirrels chasing each other around, scrambling up and down tree trunks and darting in between the fence and she wishes that, for even just a couple moments, her life could be that carefree.

“I feel like that would be us if we were animals,” Nino muses. Alya hums, she’s not sure if squirrels are really how she’d describe them but she’ll go with it. “Squirrels? What squirr- oh. No, I was looking at those two pigeons over there. They’re fighting over bread.” Nino says seriously, pointing at the birds a little behind the squirrels. Alya gives him the most disbelieving look she can.

“You’re impossible.”

“Excuse you, I thought it was incredibly romantic!”

“Remind me why I haven’t broken up with you yet?” Alya stands and begins walking back around the fountain in the direction of the bench they left Marinette and Adrien sitting at, removing her glasses to wipe them clear from where the fountain spray spattered them and muttering about how if the anniversary goes anything like this the relationship it over.

“Al, you love me.” Nino jogs to catch up with her, grabbing her hand and swinging their arms back and forth.

Alya snatches her hand back and shoots him a pointed look. “You called me a pigeon.”

“Yes, but I also called myself a pigeon. Haven’t you seen The Notebook? If you’re a bird, I’m a bird?”

Alya’s jaw drops. “You just – what – Nino…” For the first time in a long time, Alya is left speechless. (She will admit that she is a little impressed that he just quoted The Noteboook at her, but she is not impressed enough to get off her high horse).

She storms her way all the way back to the bench, huffing very audibly. Marinette and Adrien look up from where they are now lying on the grass, completely absorbed in their cloud watching. Alya’s eyes instantly focus on where their hands are resting on the ground, mere millimetres apart from brushing, before zoning back in to their upper body language. Adrien’s left arm is bent at the elbow and his head rests on his hand. His body is ever so slightly turned towards Marinette and hers to him, her right hand resting lightly on her stomach. They have absolutely no idea how cute they look; to a stranger they could be just any other couple sharing a romantic afternoon looking up at the sky. Alya makes a solemn vow that she will get them together, even if she dies trying. (Okay, that might be a little dramatic but, then again, when is it ever not dramatic with these two?)

“So, uh, how was the walk?” Adrien asks, shifting slightly so that he is facing Alya a little more.

“It was…interesting,” she responds as she sits on the grass beside them. “Nino compared me to a pigeon.”

Marinette blinks at Alya a couple times, not really sure how to respond to this. Adrien turns his head to look at Marinette seemingly trying to find out how he should react to this information. Upon seeing Marinette’s confused look, Adrien is satisfied that he is also allowed to look appropriately confused.

“I also quoted The Notebook, Al. Don’t forget that bit.” Nino sinks down to the ground and wraps an arm around Alya’s shoulder, placing an over-exaggerated kiss on her cheek with a loud smack.

“Really, Nino? Nicholas Sparks? No wonder she stormed over here with a literal black cloud over her head.” Marinette scoffs as she props herself up on one elbow. From beside her Adrien gulps slightly and hopes to God that she didn’t hear him.

“Yeah, whatever, Mari. At least I tried, don’t I get points for effort?”

“Not this time, bro.” Marinette rolls onto her back with a smirk.

“Dammit.”

“We left you some snacks,” Adrien decides that changing the subject might be a good idea. “I had to physically restrain Mari from eating them all.”

Marinette rolls her eyes. Yes, in theory he had physically restrained her, but she wasn’t going to eat them all per se. Even then, his version of ‘physically restrain’ was in fact ‘snatch pastry out of Marinette’s hands and keep box far away from her’.

Alya and Nino stretch out on the grass beside Marinette and Adrien, munching on the leftover pastries. Nino muses aloud that this is almost like a double-date, which results in much coughing and blushing from Marinette and Adrien, and Alya responds in kind, lamenting the fact that this is not a double-date.

Double-date or not, the four of them spend the next hour pointing out particularly strangely shaped clouds, laughing their way into the early evening. They’ve had a little drama along the way, but Alya reckons that this road trip is definitely starting to look up. She curls into Nino’s side as the air begins to cool. He may have called her a pigeon and quoted the cheesiest film on earth to her, but she loves him.

Also he’s warm.

(English Script) Mafumafu’s new “Slime-Making” video

youtube

Mafumafu posted a new live-action “cooking” video so I translated the whole script! Again, I can’t add subs to his channel because he doesn’t have community contributions enabled, so you’ll have to read it in text form, sorry ;; I tried to break the lines up by “scene” in my usual script format, but Mafu is the only “speaker” in this video, so I apologize if it’s hard to follow or anything. You can watch the original video through the link above. Enjoy!

(Btw no, he never said who was filming this whole thing, if you were wondering~ Also if you catch any references or anything that I may have missed since I don’t play Dragon Quest, please let me know! ) Please do not reprint these translations without permission or use them to upload subbed versions of the video to any site.

Title: These Dragon Quest Slimes were surprisingly delicious [Delicious]

Description: I’ve been living for the sole purpose of eating Slimes!!! If you subscribe to my channel, I’ll do a handstand out of joy.

----------------------

I think that people who perform music will find it useful in their music-making If they learn how to make Slimes as well. They’re nice and cold and feel good, after all.

Mafu: Hi everyone! Hello. I’m Mafumafu. Caption: ↓ Mafuteru Mafu: (quietly) Over here? Oh well.

Mafu : “Mizu Shingen Mochi!” (T/N: Also called “water cakes” in English sometimes) Wait, no! *flips the container over* Mafu : Sl- Slime… Slime… Mafu : E-edible Slimes! I want to make these. Mafu : I’m going to be making colored water cake Slimes with these patterns! I think I’ll be able to make Slimes of various colors.

Transition Image: “Mafumafu Channel”

Mafu: So now for this, we need 200 ml of water Caption: *gulp* *gulp* “Measuring by drinking” Mafu: 200 ml of water. Eight grams of agar. What is this thing? It’s huge. Isn’t this really big? How many grams are in this thing? There’s 250 in here? We need 8 grams. There’s 250 in here. Mafu: First, 200 ml of water. I wonder how much that is? Two hundred? Caption: “Drinking again and measuring by weight” Mafu: Maybe this much? Mafu: Eight grams of agar. How much is 8 grams? Caption: “Measuring roughly” Mafu: This much? Maybe a bit more. This might be good. Mafu: It says it solidifies at room temperature. Is this gonna be ok? Mafu: Oh crap. Oh crap, wait! Oh crap, oh crap. It’s solidifying! Mafu: I feel like I didn’t add enough. It might not be enough. Caption: “Q. I wonder if it’s not enough” Mafu: I wonder if it’s not enough Caption: “A. Already used too much” Mafu: Eight grams~ Caption: “Adding a lot” Mafu: I think this seems good? It seems good. It’s a bit syrupy. Mafu: This is already too much work so I guess I’ll add this (food coloring). Here I go. Mafu: Ah! This is amazing! Doesn’t it look kinda like a Slime? See? Hey. I wonder if this is good. Mafu: The food coloring already looks a bit dull. I wonder if it’s ok?

Mafu: It’s not boiling, so I think maybe I can put it on high heat? Mafu: It’s boiling now, so I’ll put it on low heat. Mafu: Eh, does this have enough agar? Doesn’t it not seem like enough?Maybe a bit more. Eight grams. Caption: “Adding more” Mafu: This must be enough. What’s this? It’s getting kinda white. Mafu: Oh, this seems good. Mafu: It stinks! Eh? The Slimes stink! Ah, it’s sticky! Mafu: This Slime base is at the right heat, so I’ll be pouring it into the molds now. Here I go. Mafu: (pouring) I put too much in! Ah, this looks good? I’ll press it down. Mafu: Ooohhh~! (happy) Mafu: Oooh~ (confused) Mafu: Ohh… Oh… (baffled) Mafu: I think it’s fine? It’s fine? A bit… m-messy… Isn’t it fine? Mafu: Is it going to solidify? I’m going to let it chill in the fridge. Mafu: I should make Soraru-san or someone drink this. Mafu: Ah, it’s solid! Wow, look! It’s- ah ah ah, ooh?!?! Eh? Eh? Eh, isn’t this impressive? Caption: “Rejoicing at the unexpected outcome” Mafu: This is great! Wait, wait- Eh? Eh, wow!! Eh, isn’t this awesome? Wait a second- What is this? Wait, wait, wait. Look! Caption: “Look!

Mafu: (laughing really hard) Mafu: You see… what should I say? What can I say here? Well… Caption: “Question. Tasty or gross?” Mafu: Well, if I had to say if it’s good or bad…… it’s a slug-

Mafu: Alright, now let’s just wait until the other ones harden. Mafu: About three minutes have passed now. How about it, I think it’s probably solidified now? Oh, water’s coming out. Should I open it? Here I go! Mafu: Open! Please! Please! OOOOHH!! Wow!!! Eh? Wow!! Wow! Wow, wait a second! This seems like a success! Wow! Caption: “Huge success!” Mafu: This is my beloved bowl that I always use. How do they look? Oh, they’ve formed!! They’re formed! Woah!! Wow! Mafu: Next is green. Here. Please solidify. Mafu: This is like the color of “Bubble Slimes.” Ow, it’s hot. Mafu: Should I eat it? I’ll eat it. Whoops! Mafu: I wonder how much the color will change when it’s done. This looks good! Isn’t this the color of Mottle Slimes? These are like Slimes too, WOOHOO! It’s really dry… Mafu: Here are the green Slimes! Ta-da! Open! Open! …. Hmm? Caption: “Unfinished” Mafu: ...Eh? Caption: “Gently closes it” Mafu: It wasn’t chilled enough. It needs to be more chilled. That’s surprising, since it was in the freezer.

Mafu: Here’s the green stuff from earlier. I didn’t add enough agar, so it’s a bit soft. Ah! Isn’t this great? Isn’t it? It is! Can you tell what the texture is like? Eh? Eh? Eh? Wait, wait. This is amazing! Mafu: (laughs hard) What is this? What is this? AAAH oh no!! Mafu: With the power of the refrigerator… Open!! It’s cool. Caption and Automated Voice: “Please press the ‘unlock’ button.” (T/N: I think he’s hitting a button on his stove?) Mafu: It’s stiff. (gasps) One of them is alive. Caption and Automated Voice: “Please press the ‘unlock’ button.” Mafu: Isn’t this one facing the wrong direction?! So cute! Isn’t it cute? Isn’t it cute?! Ah, one of them didn’t turn out right. Mafu: This looks good! Look at this one! The other one is a bit… Should I just eat it like this? I’ll eat it. Yeah. It’s not good. Mafu: I tried making some yellow base…. But I put it in this plastic bottle and it looks like uri- (cut off)

Transition Image: “Mafumafu Channel” Mafu: Open! Yellow ones! Freezer power! Wow, the freezer is so powerful! Eh, don’t these look really nice? I think they’re good? I think they’re good?? I think this looks pretty good! Look! Look! I’ll tweet these ones later. Mafu: This looks good too. Here I go! One, two! There they are!! So cute! Ah, I think these ones were a success! Oh, they’re still a bit warm. Look! Alright, alright. They’re pretty! Here, this is what they look like. Not bad! Not bad at all. Mafu: What do you think? Look at these. Aren’t these Slimes pretty? They all have Slime faces on them. But you know, even with these four colors, it’s a bit boring making pretty Slimes. (holds up pot of black liquid and laughs) Mafu: I put them all together. Here I go. I’m doing it. There’s something gross there at the bottom!! Here I go. It looks like dark matter. Oh boy. Mafu: Squuuuish!! The final Slimes are now finished. (hums a tune as he reveals them) G… Gross! Gross!! These ones have fallen into darkness. No doubt about it. Mafu: Doesn’t it look kind of powerful? Isn’t it kind of cute?! Look. It’s like a Dark Slime. (shrieks as he drops one) It’s totally-

Mafu: It’s finished!! Look, aren’t they cute? Time to eat them! Brown sugar syrup! Ahhh!! I’ll try it now! Mafu: This one here (the first blue one that he made) This one’s the most perfectly made of them all. This is a blue Slime (inaudible, sorry!) Mafu: I’m truly glad to have met you, my first partner. I’ll never forget you. (chomp) It’s stiff. Cameraman: (pointing right at the black Slime) Mafu: No, no, no. Why are you pointing? Cameraman: (points again) Mafu: No, no, I don’t see anything. Oh, this? This? (pointing at another one) Cameraman: (points at the black Slime) Mafu: You know… (inaudible) You can sense the darkness from it. It’s a thing you can’t even cover up with brown sugar syrup or soy flour, after all. I’m going to eat it now. It’s so stiff!! It just crunched! Here I go! I’m eating the Black Slime. Mafu: (hops) Well… the flavor is still the same, but just thinking about how I’m eating the black one gave me goosebumps! Wooooh! Mafu: Today I spent about 6 hours making these. To everyone watching, please try making them as well. That’s all, so bye-bye!
